I have a custom 4’ x 2’ 100ish gallon peninsula tank coming in in the next few days. What are suggestions for tangs that I can keep for the full length of their life in this tank?
 
Personally I would have no problem putting a yellow, purple, scopas, tomini (or other bristletooths) or a combo of two these in a 4' tank. Understand they will probably be the boss especially as they get bigger and likely to become a bit more aggressive due to the tank size limitation and will be crowded as adults
 
Whitetail bristletooth is my favourite tang, and a scopas could be nice with it. They’re both found in frenchpolynesia aswell which is nice in my eyes, ties into a biotope if your into that sort of thing
 
+1 for the whitetail BT, they are a beauty.
I would keep scopas, yellow, tomini, or mimic tang.. something in the med sz range.
The purple tang normally will get big and strong very fast, also very aggressive.
